he first thing attendees at this yearâs MeadowGrass Music Festival should experience is a degree of familiarity after a year of pandemic. Nicole Nicoletta, executive director of festival sponsor Rocky Mountain Highway, said that dream came closer to fruition last month when the county eased restrictions on outdoor events.
Originally, festival organizers had envisioned all attendees restricted to 10-by-10-foot pods similar to those used at last yearâs MeadowGrass Vibes concert at UCHealth Park. Now, the large meadow at Black Forestâs La Foret Conference & Retreat Center will look much as it has for past MeadowGrass gatherings.
